Still low on energy after a week on the couch due to the flu, I decided to go for something less ambitious than usual on a Sunday. The main goal being to visit my only remaining train stop between Bergen and Ljosandbotn (see the Stasjoner på Bergensbanen list ), namely Seimsgrend haldeplass . I took the train to Voss and from there simply followed a combination of cycling/walking paths and smaller roads with limited traffic east to Bulken . Here I crossed the river via the bridge and briefly continued along the main road to Hamlagrø. An increase in the amount of traffic and the lack of a sidewalk made this the least enjoyable part of the hike. Thankfully it only lasted for less than 1 km before I could leave the main road and start descending on the smaller gravel road to Seim. The train stop at Seim/Seimsgrend was easily located and I only had to wait around 15 minutes >>>

I started by taking the train to Voss and then the bus towards Granvin. The plan was to get off at Moo and start hiking from there. But even though both the online timetable and the information screen on the bus indicated that this should be ok, the bus driver had other ideas and was almost on his way into Tunsbergtunnelen before I managed to press the stop button just in time to get off at the final stop before the tunnel. (The same thing happened last year as well , hence it is probably a good idea to ask the driver in advance whether the bus is going through the tunnel or not.) After crossing the main road I continued northeast along a separate walking and cycling path that I later learned was the old route of the decommissioned Hardangerbanen , a local train route from Granvin to Voss. The walking and cycling path however ended >>>

Byrseteggi from Bjørgum to Gjerdåker

Fjelltur
Turlengde:
6:12t
Distanse:
24,6km

Started by taking the train to Voss where I switched to bus and continued southeast in the direction of Granvin and getting off at the bus stop called Bjørgum. From there I followed the roads up to Fennastølen for the real start of the hike. The weather had gradually improved during the ascent, such that when I started the final off-trail ascent to Byrseteggi most of the clouds had disappeared and I could fully enjoy the beautiful fall colors. The map indicated a trail heading north from Fennastølen but I failed to find any traces of such a trail. However, the final ascent was still straightforward and it did not take long before I arrived at the summit of Byrseteggi. It provided excellent panoramic views, and a great overview of Horndalsnuten and the rest of Raundalsryggen to the northeast/east. Even though the >>>
